Project Overview
A smart, regional, integrated platform in Oman for fuel storage, petroleum products trading, vessel bunkering, ship-to-ship (STS) operations, marine services, port services and digital operations management.
This is not merely a fuel tank farm or a trading company — it is a complete marine energy ecosystem delivering storage, trading, bunkering, STS transfers, marine and port services, and digital management of orders, operations, risk, compliance and reporting in one unified structure. Duqm’s strategic location, special economic zone, port, energy infrastructure and shipping lanes make it the natural home for a secure, smart and trusted regional fuel and marine-energy hub.
Key Components
- Fuel Storage Facilities for fuel & petroleum products
- Fuel Trading Desk for products trading & export
- Bunkering Operations for vessel fuel supply
- STS (Ship-to-Ship) Transfer Operations
- Marine & Port Support Services
- Digital Operations Platform — orders, operations & risk
- Compliance & Risk Management (licensing, safety, AML, KYC)
- ESG & Sustainability Framework and International Partnership Network
Strategic Objectives
- 1Position Oman — especially Duqm — as a secure, smart, trusted regional bunkering and marine-energy hub
- 2Capture value from international shipping lanes passing Omani waters
- 3Build a digitally managed, compliant, ESG-driven fuel trading operation
- 4Start with an asset-light phase (SPV, licensing, trading & partnerships) before heavy storage capex
- 5Connect port operators, shipping lines, energy companies and investors
Team We Are Building
- General manager — energy trading & marine operations
- Government, port authority & licensing liaison (Oman)
- Fuel traders & bunkering operations specialists
- Compliance, AML/KYC & risk management officers
- Digital platform product & operations team
- Legal counsel — energy, maritime & trade law
Investment Perspective
A phased investment model: phase one is deliberately asset-light — SPV formation, trading & bunkering licenses, partnerships and digital platform — avoiding early heavy tank-farm capex.
Later phases scale into storage facilities, expanded STS operations and regional trading volume.
Revenue streams: trading margins, bunkering fees, STS operations, storage leasing and digital services.
Strategically aligned with Duqm SEZ incentives and Oman’s maritime-economy ambitions.
